Chapter 362 - SMILING HANDSOME FACE



Kaito reviewed the document several times before he closed the email. Even though they had not left on good terms, he did not expect that she would resign as the vice president of Shuriken Logistics with immediate effect. He dialled her number. 

"Hello," Ayumi answered coolly. 

"I have received your resignation letter. Are you sure about your decision?" Kaito asked. 

"Of course. I believe the current situation is untenable." She responded calmly. 

"If that is the case, I approve your resignation." He did not intend to convince her to stay in the company. 

"However, I do not intend to give up on my position in the Shadow Brotherhood." She added. 

The Shadow Brotherhood and Shuriken Logistics were separate entities. Even though they were linked, the core structure was completely different. Shuriken Logistics was an open and clean business for the most part. 

The business provided transportation, storage and freight management solutions to other companies. In simple terms, the enterprise was powerful and legitimate. However, Kaito established it originally as a cover for his Shadow Brotherhood operations.

Building a logistics company was the most sensible choice because of the flexibility of his assassins travelling under the radar around the world on shipping trucks and cargo ships. Also, the new business provided a good solution for money laundering. 

However, the success of running the two businesses came from keeping the core operations as separate as possible in terms of legal issues. Still, at the top of the managerial chain, Kaito led them both. 

He had also assigned Ayumi a role in monitoring the performance of the Shadow Brotherhood. Since she was not an exceptional assassin like Kaito, she was not suited for fieldwork. Still, she managed the assignments taken by the Shadow Brotherhood. 

Kaito was silent for a moment after hearing her suggestion. He lowered his dark eyes and thought about her words for some time. 

Ayumi thought he was opposed to the idea, so she explained further. 

"It is not comfortable for me to keep working with you. But you cannot expect me to give up my entire life just to avoid you. For the moment, you cannot be involved with the Shadow Brotherhood. But we still have people who rely on the organisation for their income." Ayumi explained.

"We cannot simply shut down without warning. You are under scrutiny after staying with Hu Lei in Supreme City and becoming the young master of the Takahashi family. It is only logical for me to focus on the Shadow Brotherhood since I won\'t have involvement with Shuriken Logistics." She added.

Kaito was contemplative, but no one could understand his thoughts. After a long moment, the corner of his lips turned up. 

"Alright. You can manage the Shadow Brotherhood for now." He responded. 

"Alright. If there is nothing else, I have other matters." Ayumi said before ending the call. 

Kaito continued going through his messages. Once he finished the work, he called the number Akira had given him. It seemed he could not take the lovely staycation with Akira that he had imagined when he stuck to her like plaster. 

However, he could still enjoy coming back home here for a few days. 

After making the order, he went into the bathroom and took a long shower before stepping out of the bedroom with a towel around his waist. Even though there was some bruising on his chest, his pectoral muscles were still quite attractive. 

Akira, who was about to knock on the door, was faced with a wall of flesh. She was dazed for a moment before she turned into an angry, small animal. 

"You! Why are you walking around someone else\'s house naked?" She pointed at him.

Kaito laughed deeply. "How is this naked? I didn\'t hear you complaining yesterday when we were in the water, and I was less covered." 

"That was a completely different situation." She sputtered. 

"Fine, fine. But this is not my will too. I am waiting for the personal shopper to bring me clothes. I doubt I can squeeze into one of your dresses." Kaito lifted his dark brow.

Akira was exasperated. 

"Do whatever you want. I was coming to tell you that I am leaving. I have some business to handle. I have left a copy of the keys on the kitchen counter, and I will text you the alarm code, though you can probably manage." She said flatly with an accusatory look in her eyes. 

Kaito chuckled awkwardly. 

"I am an upright guy." He said righteously. 

Akira cast one more suspicious look at Kaito. 

"I am leaving." She turned away with a wave of her hand. 

"Have a good day," Kaito said. 

Akira paused in her steps. She did not know why she felt a little warm and fuzzy at the simple statement by Kaito. She recovered fast and kept walking out of the house. 

She drove out of the garage in a white car. The car was a modern one, and its performance was highly rated, despite the simple design. However, she missed her new classic car. The handling was a tad more difficult, but it reminded her of old movies. 

When she returned to Mountain Ridge, she would take it to a mechanic for a tune-up and maybe a few modifications to make it a little more comfortable. As for Kaito taking it away again, he could only keep dreaming. She did not intend to part with that old car.

Though she had come to Tokyo on a whim, she did have some business to handle while she was there. She first drove to Black Avenue Entertainment. 

Black Avenue Entertainment dominated the local entertainment market. The company was quite successful and had a lot of stars signed up. They did not only deal with music, dramas and movies but also manga and anime. 

When Akira arrived at the building, she was welcomed with respect and ushered to the president\'s office. She stepped into the large open space and faced a smiling handsome face.

Unlike Kaito\'s wicked smile, this man had a spring-like warm smile.
